Description

This is an ongoing need for our School. Lewis and Clark is the home of over 1000 Preschool-5th grade students. More than half of our student population is below poverty guidelines and need all the assistance they can get. Many students are in need of clothing/shoes and many came to school this year with no school supplies. In my position I am reaching out to organizations in hopes of gift card donations so that I can purchase items the students need. 

Many come to school with no snack and school is the only time many of them even get a meal, I want to stock our snack pantry so that our most vulnerable students get their bellies full so they can focus on their education. 

I appreciate the consideration of donating to our Lewis and Clark Grizzly family
